Century Arms PSL54 7.62x54R Rifle with Optic
- Caliber-Gauge:
- 7.62x54 R
The Century Arms PSL54 is a semi-automatic rifle chambered in 7.62x54R, the classic Soviet rifle cartridge still favored by shooters who value proven, economical ammunition and robust firearm design. Built on decades of battle-tested engineering, this Romanian-made rifle brings that distinctive Eastern Bloc character to the range or field—it's a specialized choice for shooters committed to the cartridge or drawn to its historical lineage and straightforward reliability.
The PSL54 ships with a factory-included scope, letting you set up and shoot right away without hunting down rings and bases. The rifle features a 4140 steel chrome-lined 24.5-inch barrel, a durable laminated thumbhole stock for a secure grip and control, and a pinned PSL muzzle brake that helps manage recoil. Adjustable rear sights and a hooded front sight give you mechanical backup if the optic goes down—a practical reminder that this rifle was built to work in the field, not just at a bench.
One 10-round magazine is included, offering a practical balance between capacity and compliance. This is a rifle for the shooter who understands the 7.62x54R cartridge, appreciates solid construction, and doesn't need marketing hype—just a functional semi-auto platform that gets the job done.
